How Consumption is Communicated.

Professor Ruhle, Of Bonn, in a recent
paper on consumption of the lungs, states
that in his opinion the most frequent man
ner of contracting this malady is from a
diseased person through the sputa, also
through the glands, exfoliations from the
skin, or any way in which the poison may
appear on the surface and he transported
by means Of pocket handkerchiefs, wash
ing, etc. The fact that the attendants in
hospitals who have the care Of consump-
tivcs are seldom attacked with the disease,
conyicCd the writer that it is not the air
through which the germs are carried, but
it is communicated in another mode, in
fact, the way in which the members Of
the family kiss and fondle the patient and
handle his linen From one member of
the family the special germ which eXcites
the disease goes to another. Instances
can frequently he found, on inquiry, where
the parents transmit the disease to their
children; in such cases the family physi-
clan should put in his word of warning

rhreo Years of skimmed MIX.

Louis Herbst, who is one of the best
known Germans in South Jersey, cele-
brated Tie ether day his third anniver-
sary Of u Skinned milk diet. Mr.. Herbst
is large, finely formed man of about
fifty years Of age, and weighs about two
hundred pounds. Three years ago he was
afflicted with dyspepsia and kidney
troubles and was advised by his physician
to try diet of SKINNED milk exclusively.
lie tried the remedy for a couple Of
months and was SO benefited by the diet
that he determined to try it for year.
At the expiration of the latter period Mr..
Herbst's health was almost perfect. Far
from becoming thin or emaciated from the
long continued use of skinned milk, his
form was, if possible, even more rotund
than before, and by the advice of his
doctor he decided TO adopt skinned milk
as his exclusive diet permanently. For
three years he has eaten or drank abso-
lutely nothing but the article named-not
even watcr-and declared to his friends
who visited him yesterday that he pro-
posed to continue SKINNED milk and dis
pense with steaks, bread and butter ard
beer for the rest of his e.-Phlladelphia

His sunday Nose.

Il once knew a sea captain who came

lighter strain, who had an encounter
with shark IN his youth and lost sis
nose, and for the sake Of harmony rather
than vanity he had tin false nose made
TO look rs much like the lost featurc as
possible. When he went TO sea be tried
always TO make his crew recognize the
sabbath with appropriate respect and ob-
seryance; he therefore ingenuOusly had a
silver nose made for himself which he
wore on Sunday, keeping the tin nose for
week days, and the signal was always re-
spected, so far as he knew Perhaps he
never heard that the sailors always called
the Sabbath silver nose day. as they
might well have easily heen pardoIed Cor

fmprobabilities Sometimes Become Real
ities-A True Wnman,s Fidelity.

Several works bearing unique titles, writ
ten in fascinating style, and giving evidence
Of wonderful imaginative power have lately
been received BY the reading public with
much popularity and pleasure.
Perhaps the most striking OF them is the
book bearing the odd tltleof She" In this
the author has fairly outdone himself in his
popular line. Ayesha and her beloved Nal
hkrates are unique characters IN fiction.
Ayesha, the heroine, is a beautiful creature
who tasted of the esserce OF natures forces
at the fountain head, and became immortal
Her patient waiting for the coming OF
Ksllikratos, the beioved OF her youth,
whose individuality was maintained through
centuries, though the change called death
regularly occurred, only to be followed by
rebirth, is a fine Illustration of woman'S
fidelity.
The closing scene, when she conducts
Kallikrates to the very center OF the earth,
the birthplace of all life, in order that no
may taste of Immortality, is a fit climax to
the fine creation.
The question naturally suggested by. this
strikingly original story is whether thvre is
not somewhere in nature, a potent force
whereby life may at least be temporarily
prolonged.
Mrs. Annie Jenness- Miller, editor OF
"Dress," says: "In every instance Warmers
Safe Cure has the e~ffcctto give new energy
and vitality to all my powers" Nine. Gray,
teacher of Oratory and Physical Culture at
Syracuse, declares: Before | tried physical
cultur and Warmers safe cure, ! was a
confirmed invalid. lowe much TO that ex-
cellent remedy, and do not hesitate to ac-
knowledge it,h
Human life seems too short, though men
In former ages lived longer than those of
the present. History tells us that they
lived more in accordance with natures
laws their mode of living was extremely
simple, and in their daily life they followed
the dictates of human intelligence.
If sickness comes, we of to-day, seek tho
remedy among the artificial forces instead
of resorting to the field of nature,
II when diseases come, we would consult
nature, the chances are that we would fare
better, for we would then treat the cause of
such disorders. Modern research has shown
that most of tho commonly known diseases
owe their origin to the unhealthy state or
the kidneys, the blood purifiers of the sys-
TEN, and If they are kept in \ healthy state
by the use Of Warmers safe cure, a veg
etable compound and simple production OF
nature, much Of the prevailing sickness
would be happily averted. ,,.,
1t is probable that the author Of 'She'
derived many Of his beautiful imaginings
from close commnnings with nature, IoT we
nature, is more beautiful and wholesome,
than that which is artificially constructed
